So, what's sullivan response?I was watching Fareed Zakaria's GPS 360 this morning and he had on Biden's pick for National Security Advisor, Jake Sullivan. The thing about Indians is they want to come across as neutral but it's really they don't want to be caught picking the wrong side. Fareed Zakaria is no different but this time the shifting winds were blowing against the US. Zakaria pointed out that the Democrats during the election had called Trump's tariffs on China a failure yet why is Biden going to continue them? Sullivan said that the difference is Trump did it unilaterally where Biden will get allies on board. Jake Sullivan apparently tweeted to the EU not to sign on the investment deal with China until the Biden Adminstration can consult with them. Zakaria pointed out that tweet seems to have accelerated the EU into signing it. He also pointed to Asian countries signing RCEP so how is Biden going to gang up allies when they've already drawn their own conclusions in regards to China and their futures.
As I have said Sullivan tweet did nothing good but embarrassing himself and Biden admin.
